Weekend Recap...

Friday: I spent the evening playing with Melody and bracing myself for the freezing temperatures and icy mix we were getting. On my way home from work, I passed two accidents. I don't think they were anything too bad. I do know that I had a hard time getting up a hill though. It just wasn't a good night to travel.

Saturday: I had plans to go to my parents but when I carried my stuff out to my car, I couldn't get across the parking lot to my car. That's how bad the ice was. I much prefer snow; at least you get a little bit of traction. The ice was awful, so I turned around and went back inside. I read my book (and finished it!) with Home Improvement playing in the background. My dad sent me a message at 10 pm saying he could pick me up when he got off work if I wanted him to. That was a really nice offer and took him up on it. I made it to my parents' house at 1 in the morning. We all chatted for a bit before I fell into bed. I'm not used to staying up that late.

Sunday: We went to a friend's house for a Super Bowl party and it was a lot of fun. For the game, I naturally chose Seattle to win, but I kept it secret because all of our friends are Broncos fans. To be honest, I didn't care who won, I just wanted to see a good game. I hate watching a game that's a complete blowout. What a disappointment. Also, the commercials sucked. There were only a couple that were decent. Many of them tried too hard to be funny and fell real short. Something needs to be done about that.

This morning, I had to ride in with my mom, so I could have been early to work today. Instead, I spent over half an hour trying to defrost my car enough to see to drive. What a waste of gas. It's still covered in ice, but at least I could see out of my windows a little bit.
